When and why did you first decide to start your channel?

I’d been watching videos for about two years before I decided to start my own. It looked like so much fun, but I was scared! I went to Beautybaby44’s meet-up and she really encouraged me to start a channel, so I did!

What’s your beauty philosophy?

I believe that makeup is used to enhance your natural features and shouldn’t be used to hid your imperfections.

Where do you get ideas or inspiration for your tutorials?

From magazines and celebrities! I love doing celebrity-inspired looks.

Who are a few of your favorite beauty gurus and why do you love their channels?

I love watching Missglamorazzi’s videos because her quality is always amazing and I love her GIY (glam it yourself) videos. She’s so creative! I also love Amari’s eye tutorials because she always creates the prettiest looks, while still making it easy to recreate.
